In March 2017, the first defendant signed the "Feasibility Study and Survey and Design (Preliminary Design) Project Contract for the Highway Project from Baren Township to Kiziltao Township, Akto County" with the company's Xinjiang Branch (which has been cancelled, and the creditor's rights and debts have been inherited by the company as a whole), and entrusted the company to conduct feasibility study, survey and preliminary design work on the project. Because the defendant failed to pay the design fee as agreed in the contract, the company filed a lawsuit with the People's Court of Akto County, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

(3) Requests and basis for litigation
Appeal request:
Request the court to revoke the (2025) Xin 3022 Minchu No. 1689 civil judgment issued by the Akto County People’s Court of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on July 10, 2026 in accordance with the law, and to change the judgment in accordance with the law to support all the first-instance claims of the appellant, that is, to order the appellee to pay 61,171,658 yuan in service fees to the appellant.
The appellee is ordered to bear all the litigation costs and mail service fees of the first and second instances of this case.
Facts and Reasons:
The appellant believed that the first-instance judgment was unclear about the facts and erroneously applied the law, which seriously damaged the appellant's legitimate rights and interests, and should be revoked and the judgment changed in accordance with the law. The specific reasons are as follows:
The first-instance judgment found that the appellant was not entitled to any consideration, which was an unclear finding of facts and an error in the application of law.
In the first instance, the burden of proof regarding “whether the design results are ‘qualified’” was wrongly assigned, and the appraisal agency was asked to perform appraisals beyond the scope of its duties, and then terminated the appraisal. This was an error in the allocation of the burden of proof and the procedure was illegal.
3. The second, third and fourth appellees shall bear joint and several liability.
